I brew a light (colored) yellow mex lager routinely now using WLP’s mexican lager yeast. My BMC & Corona relatives love it. But, it is a lager (as is Lonestar, right) so you need the ability to ferment at controlled low temperature.
Although, you could probably brew it as an ale using a generic ale yeast and ferment it according to the yeast’s preferable temp range.
